  att. NMRA/NTS particapants_____lost pliers
 
Hey all, While I was at the NMRA/NTS show I purchased and was using a pair of squared off needle nose pliers with blue handles. Anyway I was in the process of modding some track for myself tonight and I noticed they weren't in my box. If you (...) (19 years ago, 19-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Modified Transformers Question (Re was: Transformer Power)
 
(...) I believe the Lego transformers are 12v a/c output. I used 12v a/c output 3.3A transformers from Digikey, part number T605. You will have to add your own connector. They are quite expensive, but they don't heat up as much as the cheap ones do. (...) (19 years ago, 18-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
 
  Re: Modified Transformers Question (Re was: Transformer Power)
 
(...) The LM317 will need to "eat" more power if you supply a higher voltage and will thus kick in the thermal protection much sooner. I'd stay as close to the voltage the LEGO wallwart outputs as possible. (19 years ago, 18-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Modified Transformers Question (Re was: Transformer Power)
 
(...) John, We had the luxury of using your controllers at the NMRA show (Thanks a ton!), and I am interested in modifiying my own. I think I've got enough information to swap the internal components, but negelected to look at the wallwart (power (...) (19 years ago, 18-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) that may be tough. only way i see it working is with 2 x 4 clear plates. i looked on bricklink, and theres just not enough plates available. im working on a BTTX model now/ (19 years ago, 18-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: 6 wide autorack
 
(...) Hey Tom, I really like that. I am a _very_ big fan of autoracks, so I just might have to experiment with you technique. Now, if only we could get transparent plates to put behind those grille tiles. I just love the way you can see the cars and (...) (19 years ago, 18-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Train and Town @ BrickFest
 
Hi All, Well as we get to within 4 weeks of BrickFest the building frenzy begins. As usual we will have a train layout (with some room for train MOCs) and a separate area for Train and Town MOCs if we have an over flow (which is a good thing!). It (...)

  Re: an A1A A1A 68000 in six studs
 
Nice model, I think you have captured the 'fatness' of the prototype well, especially considering it is six wide. (19 years ago, 15-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

  Re: TCLTC layout Pics from the NMRA show
 
(...) For the most part, simply 1x1 black plates. I used black plates to bind the walls for strength, and then "greeblied" them in order for the load to look random. The secret is to turn the 1x1s at various angles so that the eye doesn't pick up (...) (19 years ago, 14-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org, FTX)
